Lifted from the front line trenches.

As the moment came he leapt up,

Gave a shout to all the Dudshires,

And the Dudshires rose and followed,

Charged beside my Tiadatha—

All who were not killed or wounded.

Through the broken wire they scrambled,

Some men cursing, some men shouting,

Some men muttering little prayers,

Some in grim and deadly silence.
